Methods of Ice Detection
Direct methods ‐ Detects property change caused by the accretion of ice. Such yproperties include mass and dielectric constantIndirect methods ‐ Based on detecting weather conditions that lead to icing such as weather conditions that lead to icing such as humidity or detecting the effect of icing such as reduction in power generatedsuc as educt o po e ge e ated

Research ObjectivesDevelop an ice accretion measurement method suitable for use on meteorological towers based on the changes in capacitance and resistance between two electrically capacitance and resistance between two electrically charged cylindrical probes
Use theoretical models to study the changes in capacitance Use theoretical models to study the changes in capacitance with ice accretion, and validate these studies using “modelled” ice growth in a laboratory setting
Test the proposed method under simulated rime and glaze ice conditions in the icing wind tunnel

ConclusionsA method based on capacitance and resistance can be use to detect icing as well as distinguishing b t th t t f i l d i ibetween the two types of in‐cloud icingThe sensitivity of the prototype probe depends on factors such as center to center distance size of factors such as center‐to‐center distance, size of probe cylinders and location of the ice depositsThe sensitivity of the prototype probe to ice The sensitivity of the prototype probe to ice accretion is high in the first few minutes of exposureThe icing rates increased with wind speedThe icing rates increased with wind speed
